BANNER PROGRAM

Part of the Barrhaven BIA’s mission is to provide enhancements to our business district by creating a more pleasant atmosphere for local businesses and neighbouring residential areas. We achieve this through customized signage, banners and seasonal messaging.

The attractive, decorative banners that you have seen along Strandherd Drive, Greenbank Road and Woodroffe Avenue give Barrhaven a festive and welcoming community look. These banners add colour and flair to Barrhaven’s otherwise bland arterial roads!

Reserve your branded banner in the next round of installations for only $325 for a 6 month period (with option to renew). Contact info@barrhavengetbusy.ca.

AIRBROWZ

Thanks to the Barrhaven BIA – your Barrhaven business can now have it’s OWN Mobile App, at no cost!

Time to start spreading the word to:
Your Clients & Customers, Family & Friends, Business Associates – All of Ottawa!

Here’s how it works.
• Go to our main dashboard at: dashboard.airbrowz.com
• Contact us for your account set up
• Remember, you want to grab the attention of a consumer – but you only have a few seconds! Be creative with your campaign heading.

The more creative and attention grabbing your header the more potential to have that mobile user react in a positive way. Here are some tips to help you self-promote;

Example of a BAD Campaign header:
“Come in and see our great promotions and deals -Today only!”

This heading delivers little value to a potential customer as you must remember, people are on their mobiles upwards of 85% of any given hour throughout the day (source: Google Think:)
Information is at their fingertips and headings like the one above will be lost, even if pushed to their mobile interface.

Example of a GOOD Campaign header:
“Between 2-5pm Today 50% off ….”

Of course you already know your typical client – so adjustments will be necessary but you get the idea. Be a little creative with grabbing the first few seconds you have in order to get the client to click into your campaign.
